<u>Answer</u>
To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use<em>. </em>
<u>Explanation</u>
A vernier caliper is an instrument that is used to measure the diameter of small circular objects such as diameter of a wires, thickness of an iron sheet.
The objects to be measured is place between the jaws of the calipers.
The vernier scale has two scales, the vernier scale and the main scale which is the very top scale.<em> To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use. </em>
Answer: c. Generally, metals are ductile.
Explanation:
From the options given in the question, the correct statement is that"Generally, metals are ductile.
Ductility of a metal simply means that a metal can be plastically deform before it is then fractured. It implies that metals can be drawn to thin wires. The only exception we have in this case is mercury.
Answer : Use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet
Explanation : we use the magnet to separate the sand from the iron filing. Because the magnet has an attraction power.
We can say that we can use the magnet to attract the iron filings out of the mixture because iron is magnetic solid, but sand will not attract because sand is not magnetic solid.
So, we use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet.
